Candles are the perfect way to warm the atmosphere in your home. Whether you’re after a refreshing scent, an energising aroma, or something sensual to spice up the mood, we carry all the best-smelling candles. With top notes, heart notes, and base notes, candles deliver long-lasting fragrances that develop throughout the day to emphasise different scents. Choosing a candle depends on your personal taste, the room the candle is going in, and the kind of mood you want to evoke. Don’t worry: we’re here to help so you can decide on the best candles for your home.

What Are The Different Types of Candles?
Endless fragrance combinations are available when it comes to choosing a candle. All candle fragrances create different atmospheres and aromas, which develop and change throughout the day. Candles also come in all different shapes and sizes and can be as decorative as they are functional. Choosing packaging to suit your interior is important if you want your candle to enhance the atmosphere.
Candles can be made of different types of wax, from natural soy wax and paraffin to beeswax and liquid wax. Paraffin wax candles are the most common, as they ensure strength, strong colour, and a potent fragrance. But soy wax candles are becoming increasingly popular, as they don’t contain pollutants or chemical nasties. To discover how to look after your candles, we recommend
